Part of 1. Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Economy and Transport – in the Senedd at 1:33 pm on 6 June 2018.
Good afternoon, Minister. Festivals in Wales are a great opportunity for attracting tourists and boosting local economies. For example, Abergavenny Food Festival has grown to be one of the largest food festivals in the United Kingdom, attracting more than 30,000 visitors to Abergavenny and generating an estimated £4 million for this local economy. What discussions has the Cabinet Secretary had with Cabinet colleagues to support food festivals, such as Abergavenny, to increase tourism and the economy across Wales, please?
